Der Killer

Matz and Luc Jacamon's Der Killer is a taut, philosophical crime saga published by Egmont Ehapa from 2004 to 2015. Across 13 issues, the series follows a coldly professional assassin whose meticulous assignments unravel into a web of moral decay and existential dread. Jacamon's stark, airbrushed visuals and Budde and Matz's lean, introspective scripts make this a standout European noir, prized for its unflinching look at the cost of a life lived in the shadows.
